Healthy Lemon Blueberry Scones

I don’t think I’ve told all of you this, but I’m in the middle of doing Weight Watchers with my mom. AND I’ve lost just over 10 pounds So exciting! I still have more to lose, but I’m excited with what I have done so far.

It’s so hard to find recipes for things that I love that fit into my “plan” – but these lemon blueberry scones taste SO good AND they don’t break my diet at all!

You definitely don’t need to be a skilled baker to make these either – there’s not too much involved!

If you’re NOT watching your calories/sugar, etc…then you can combine 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice with 1/2 a cup of powdered sugar to make a glaze to put on top of the scones once they have cooled down a little bit.

Enjoy your scones!

I personally love these fresh and warm. I usually lightly re-heat them in the days after I make them.

I use the Weight Watchers Points Plus System and each scone is only 3 points!

We LOVE these! The original recipe comes from Taste of Home – Cooking Lite. Anyway, we’ve successfully used white whole wheat flour in place of the all purpose and have swapped the 1/4 C melted butter for 2 T olive oil and 2 T applesauce, or just 3 T of olive oil. We’ve also successfully reduced the sugar to 1/4 C {flavored yogurt is super sweet!}. Those simple changes make an already great scone even better. Now that blueberry season is here, these are a regular occurrence at our house! I’m so glad you enjoy them too.
